THE POLICE FORCE.
Additions and Changes Protection for
the Suburbs.

With the opening Of the new year
the police force of Honolulu has been
strengthened by Hon. j. L. Kaulukou,
Marshal, in accordance with provision
made at the last session of the Legisla-
ture. Each of the two regular watches
is increased from IS to IS men, with
eight hours on and eight off as before.
One watch goes on at $500 a. m, is re-
lieved a 1890 a. m. and returns to re-
lieve the second watch at 7:3o p. m.
Thus each watch does alternate day
and night duty. From this it will be
seen that our much criticized police
men have only eight hours out of the
twenty.four on duty, and it does not
appear as if better can he done for
them until the Legislature can afford
support for larger number.
Three new beats have been estab-
lished. One is at the corner Of King
and Liliha streets, extending on the
former to the Reformatory School, Pa
lama, and on the latter to the corner Of
School street The second is at the
corner of Emma and Punchbowl streets,
connecting with the officers at the cor.
ners of School and Fort streets and
Nuuanu and Judd streets. The third
rs out on the Plains, beyond Thomas
square, the exact limits being at present
unknown to our reporter
Sixteen new men have been added to
the force. Three officers have been
dismissed on account Of old age and
other incapaoity. On the first day OF
the year the Marshal caused the whole
force to assemble in the Police Court
room, where he lectured them on their
duties from thehourof 6;3o till O'Clock,
a. m. Mr.. Kaulukou is at the Station
every night till midnight and frequently
makes unexpected visit to different
beats, to see for himself how the mer
are attending to duty. The new De
putty Marshal will be commissioned to
day.

The gun has distanced the ship in
the race for superiority in naval arma-
ments, so that cry has been raised in
England against building more armored
ships. Perhaps the question of the
ship for the gun will be settled by the
time Hawaii is ready to put war dogs
in the Pacific to keep her various
schools of civilization from breaking
up.

A Chinaman has bought the exclu
sive privilege of selling opium in Pa
mama, paying fee of $4,000 for it.
The money is devoted partly to hospi
tails and partly to reducing the Govern
ment debt. Probably at the end Of
the year the Government will have
found it has made bad bargain, what
with hospitals filled with sick and crazy
Cinnamon and police expenses greatly
increased.

II Am to Dor

The symptoms of biliousness are unhap-
PLY too well known. They differ in diff
ferent individuals to some extent. A bill
ious man is seldom a breakfast eater.
Too frequently, alas, he has an excellent
appetite for liquids but lone for solids of
a morning. His tongue will hardly bear
inspection at any time; if it is not white
and furred, it is rough, at all events.
The digestive system is wholly out of
order and Diarrhea or Constipation may
be a symptom or the two may alternate.
There are often Hemmorrhoids or even
loss of blood. There may be giddiness
and often headache and acidity or flatu-
lence and tenderness in the pit of the
stomach. To correct all this if not effect
a cure try GREEN'S august FIotoer, it costs
but a trifle and thousands attest its efficacy.

Bavaria has succeeded in doing what
no other country has yet been able to ac-
comphsh; she has practically stamped
out h~ydrophobia. During the last seven
years there nave been only three deaths
of human beings from h~ydrophobia in a
population numbering close upon @, OOO,-
900; and since 1876, when the present
severe dog laws came into operation,
there has never been more than one death
in a year. Previously to that time deaths
were very frequent. Between 1868 and
1875 the death rate from h~ydrophobia in
Bavaria was never less than fourteen in n
year, and once it reached the high per-
centage of thirty-one. The regulations
which have banished this terrible malady
from a whole kingdom are very minute,
and perhaps some little vexatious; but it
is assuredly worth while to take a little
trouble for SO desirable an end
Every dog in the country is bound,
upon pain of instant death, to bear upon
his collar a metal tally, upon which is in
scubed his number upon the register of
his district. The color and shape of this
tally, which is really the dogs passport,
are changed every year, and the police
are thus able to see at a glance if a dog is
sin order" Once a month all dogs have
to be examined by a veterinary surgeon,
and if they are not IN good health they
are detained in a kind of dogs hospital
until they recover If an animal changes
hands, the transfer must be at c mott
fled to the police, and any breach of the
regulations-even a delay of a few days
in the payment of the tax-is visited by
a heavy fine. The tax varies from three
shillings a year in the country districts to
fifteen shillings in the large towns.-St.
James BudOet.

ga soldiers life is hard, but he has his
joys as well" said an ex-Confederate sol
der, "and l can recall many amusing in
cidents in the midst of privations and
anxieties. After I was taken prisoner
by the Federals in Tennessee l was sent
with a large number of others similarly
unfortunate on the train to Nashville.
They put about sixty of us in one coach
and locked the doors on the outside.
There was no danger of our attempting
to escape, as we could not open the doors,
and if we could we would nave had to
jump from a train running at the rate of
thirty miles IN hour, but they placed
two guards in there with us. They sat
by the door with their backs to it.
''In a few minutes one of the guards
said to the other: Give me a chew of
tobacco The man handed it to him, and
the one who received it passed back five
cents, with the remark: That makes
five / have gotten from you; here is your
money He was paving for his chews at
the rate of a cent a piece. 1t aroused our
indignation to see men paying each other
for chews of tobacco, and we began to
ridicule them. They were afraid to say
anything, for they Knew we could take
their guns away from them and beat
them to death, and there were boys
among us who would have lone it if
given provocation. The Yankees had
two big knapsacks of food, and, as we
were hungry, we determined to have
their provisions. The ~knapsacks hung on
the wall near them. Darkness came on
before we reached Nashville, and as the
coach was but slightly illuminated we
managed to steal the knapsacks without
detection and divide the food among us.
We then hung the knapsacks back.
Shortly afterward the fellows began to
get hungry and turned to their KNAPP
sacks. You should have heard them
curse when they found that they were
empty. We openly avowed the stealing,
and said we had done it because they
were mean enough to sell chews of to-
bacco. They growled, but they were
afraid to do anything. "-Courier7Journa

ner than in the piles of clippings from
them which are to be found in railroad
offices in this city. Most of the offices
assign to some clerk the duty of reading
the daily papers and making newspaper
clippings on all subjects of special inter
est to the company, posting these, duly
dated and authenticated, in a scrap book
and slowing them away for reference.
In this the newspaper becomes to
many railroad officials the chronicle of
events, the repository of information,
which may prove valuable at any mo-
ment and which must be kept for con-
venient reference.-New York Tribune.

been troubled with a cough so that he was
unable to sleep, and was induced to try
DR.. Kings New Discovery for Consump-

There is a large number of drugs which
will depress the temperature when taken
internally. They differ widely among
themselves in action upon the organs and
tissues of the body, hut have this n
point in common. Thus alcohol, when
taken in full doses, will lower the bodily
heat, even in health. The man who is
dead drunk" freezes to death much
sooner han one who is sober, other things
being equal, for this reason. Hence
Arctic explorers are compelled to abstain
from alcohol whenever severe cold is to
be endured, however much they may en-
joy the cheering influence of a moderate
amount of it in their daily rations when
safe on shipboard. Advantage is taken
of this antipyretic effect of alcohol in the
treatment of eXhausting diseases accom-
panied by a high temperature. Alcohol
aids the action of the heart, drives more
blood to the surface where the heat can
be lost by radiation, and is a true foo in
such affections. 1t is actually burned in
the place of the foods that cannot be
digested and taken up, and in this way
prevents loss of substance which would
otherwise be consumed.
In fevers there is increased combus-
ton, otherwise there could be no increase
in the heat produced, and materials for
this unnatural fire must be had. If not
taken in as food, the bodily tissues are
destroyed to keep up the combustion.
Alcohol is often the only food that can be
absorbed into the blood. Its value under
such circumstances cannot be overstated.
Alcohol given in disease as a food or as
an antipyretic has never been known to
cause the alcohol habit. The latter arises
from the injudicious employment of it in
neuralgias, dyspepsia and chronic affec-
tons generally. Only the most urgent
need for prompt support j~ustifes the use
of alcohol or opium in long continued
diseases. A pernicious habit is easily be-
gun in this manner and the physician is
but too often the one to be blamed for
such a misfortune.-Globe- Democrat.

Use OF Money Mt Elections.

From the Louisville Courier journal;
In at least one .ection for governor of
Kentucky since the war the successful
candidate spent money lavishly, and is
generally credited with having bought
his nomination. He dumped $4,000
into Louisville at one whirl, and
certain delegations from this city
who were named in his interest
had to be bought again in convention.
In the convention which nominated Il
governor in 1888, money was so plentiful
that many delegates found it impossible
to suy which candidate they preferred.
They generally managed, however, to
fall on the side which had the biggest
pile.
Money was openly and VIGOROUSLY
used in the election in this city last Au-
gust by every candidate who had any to
use. Money is a big factor and is rapidly
coming to be, if it Is not already, the
controlling agent in our politics. There
ought to be a strong, vigorous movement
to put down this evil, this shame to
American manhood.
